Sips & Tips
Technique
Use a ripe banana (brown spots = more flavor). The banana liqueur reinforces the banana flavor without adding more fruit texture. Blend until completely smooth.
Balance
Banana is very sweet, so the lime juice is essential. You may not need the simple syrup at all — taste the blend first. A pinch of nutmeg on top adds warmth.
